@feditips@mstdn.social @petrescatraian@libranet.de well, I would. I would just think he was an idiot, not use his instance and join one that was doing some good things. Because the opinions of a developer of a piece of software that isn't profit motivated is largely irrelevant to me.
Surely the best 'revenge' against bad people is to use their product for good things? That's the mindset of the vast majority of Lemmy instance owners and that's what defederation is for.

Leraje (leraje@satanic.nexus)'s status on Thursday, 09-Nov-2023 06:04:29 JST Leraje @feditips@mstdn.social @petrescatraian@libranet.de Ernst has done as good a job as he possibly can with KBin but his instance is a mess as he doesn't have time to Admin it. There's some very toxic communities on there. MBin seems to be taking a much more open and constructive development path.
re: Lemmy developers - who cares? It's impossible to live in the modern world without using/owning something made by awful people. They'll still be tankie idiots even if BBC profile them. Doesn't lend them as people any legitimacy whatsoever. And in the meantime, your stance is unfairly excluding people putting in a lot of work and effort to make good instances and Communities on those instances.
Surely thats what matters - the quality of the content, not who develops it. -

I don't understand your reluctance to promote Lemmy - the developers being tankies (which I'm assuming is the root of your dislike) are nothing to do with how the platform is used by non-tankies. Mastodon on the other hand has plenty of toxic instances and yet you're both on and promoting its use.
